Saturdays are great!!!

had cell today... was pretty good...
was doin worship today.... hahaha... was like really impromptu. Jason called me at 2:45, and he's like "i'll pick u up at 3:15 nic", and im like ok...
then i realise that i have to do worship... but lucky that some songs stood out for me when i was playing last night (Thanx H/S!!!) anyways i did "There is none like you", "I worship you" and "Magnificent"... first two songs went good... the last song unfortunately, noone knew it, so im like "nuts", but overall i felt happy about today... i worshipped God. then Jason blew us away with some inspired cell material. he played segments from the last Planetshakers conference (i was there btw) and yeah... Ps Reggie Dabbs...HE DA MAN!!! like seriously, he spoke of how much God loves us... can you imagine... he took all the sins of the world, (everything evil you can imagine, and stuff you cant), and he drank THAT cup... all for us....i mean... that is unworldly love... beyond any comprehension... no wonder the Bible says "the steadfast love of the lord never ceases", and "his mercy endures forever" but yeah... it was just a reminder... also, when ST said that sometimes (especially for Christians who have been Christians for a while) we take God's love for granted but yeah... we have to remind ourselves on the enormity of what he has done for us.
the second segment on the DVD was also awesome... God is always waiting for us... even when we screw up... and i screw up heaps as a Christian... he is always waiting for us to dance with him... and he always will be... another perspective i got from this is the POV of the father watching a child go wayward... not being a parent (surprise surprise) it is hard to imagine the pain... but it must be unbearable, yet God goes through all that everytime we sin... and yet he still waits for us...
today's cell was one of the best we had all year... too bad it's one of the last for a while... sigh

then Jason and I went for dinner with my parents and assorted Aunts and Uncles from church
was interesting... hahaha hilarious as me and Jase sat with some High School cell people, delise (did i spell it rite?), and let me say that if one is bored at a dinner, the digital camera is a very useful source of amusement. hahaha... i got some incriminating pics of michelle and dez inhaling an unidentified white substance.... hmmmm.... and i couldnt stop laughing all nite... those are some funny people.... the dinner was good as well btw....anyway i thoroughly enjoyed myself today...
one of the better days from this week,... cept for the fact that i did little study....

Nic, your blogs are really cool! I love the titles you give your entry - they are so cool, and very interesting! :)

Have I mentioned that you wrote a great song? Im sorry, I keep forgetting to let you know, but thank you for sharing that with us @ cell! :)

So glad to hear that you enjoyed cell last week! :) We have such great times this year - nicknames, shotguns, funny stories, deep sharing, great times, and just sharing with each other and growing in Him! :)

Nic, you're way smart, so don't worry about not studying... oops your parents might come after me now! But just enjoy uni hey! :) It is a fabulous and precious time! :)

Ok it's like 12.42am now, and I have to be out of the house by 830am tomorrow, so on that note, I'll say goodbye... for now... :P

Love, EW
